[h2][b]Updates to the Planner[/b][/h2]
[h3][i]New Feature![/i][/h3]
[h3]Building Plans with the New System[/h3]
With the new system, you can now easily save and load building plans.
[list]
[*] Automatically saves every 5 minutes in the background. It also autosaves when you complete the planning. The number of [u]autosaves is limited to 5[/u]. Apart from this, manual save feature has been added. The number of [u]manual saves is unlimited[/u].
[*] Your saves in Planner are not specific to your world. When you join another world, you can use your previously saved plans.
[*] Plans will be parcel size specific. (For example, if it is a small plot plan, you can only see your save when planning on small plots).
[*] If you plan a 5-story house and want to use your saved plan while working on a 3-story house, it will load the first 3 floors of the 5 floors on your plan.
